Character Limit
Limit number of characters in a GraphQL query document.
This plugin helps you to prevent DoS attacks by hard-limiting the size of the query document.
How to use?
Install the plugin:
npm install @escape.tech/graphql-armor-character-limitThen, add it to your plugins:
gateway.config.ts
import { characterLimitPlugin } from '@escape.tech/graphql-armor-character-limit'
import { defineConfig } from '@graphql-hive/gateway'
export const gatewayConfig = defineConfig({
plugins: () => [
characterLimitPlugin({
maxLength: 15000 // Number of characters allowed | Default: 15000
})
]
})💡
- We recommend using the Max Tokens Plugin instead of this one. - This plugin does not limit the size of input variables. - This plugin relies on a parser plugin to works and access query document through the context.
